Chapter 324 Look Who’s Here?

Time flies, and autumn comes in the blink of an eye.

Li Mumu's house was very lively. The sound of Lang Lang reading could be heard from the school next door. She lay on the pile of corn and looked at the blue sky.

"Grandpa, I have to go back to the capital tomorrow."

Old Man Gu nodded and, while greeting the villagers who had come to help with the grain harvest, he glanced back at the little girl and said, "He's received several letters, it's time to go back. At least give him some face."

Li Mumu turned over and sat up, then jumped down from the high pile of corn. People were frightened, but she was the granddaughter of General Gu, so this was nothing. Everyone was busy carrying the bags full of corn.

"No, according to the date, my mother will give birth to my little brother. If I don't go back, I will feel uneasy."

Mr. Gu was stunned for a moment, "Really? Look, I forgot about this."

Madam Gu snorted coldly, "Who said it wasn't true? You fathers are just careless. Mumu, grandma will go back with you. Although everything will be fine, I am still worried."

"Then...then I'll go back too."

"Are you leaving again?" Qin Ling had one foot in the door and the other out, the smile on his face froze. "Are you coming back?"

Li Mumu nodded, "Come back, why wouldn't you come back?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't come back. The villagers will help you take care of your land. Speaking of which, this year, we used the seeds we bought from you, and every family has a bumper harvest. This year's harvest is enough for five years, if not ten." Old Man Qin couldn't help laughing again. "Everyone says that if this continues, who will be unable to eat?"

Li Mumu smiled and said, "Selling grain is a loss. These seeds are so good, so we have to sell them. One pound is much more expensive."

"That's right." Qin Ling pointed at Li Mumu and said, "Mumu is really smart. He knows everything at such a young age and is really good at making money."

After this bumper harvest year, the people of Ningxi Village have finally straightened their backs. They are no longer a poor village where people cannot afford food or wives.

In that year alone, there were more than a dozen weddings in the village, all of which were marriages of daughters. There were fewer weddings of daughters, and the reason was not for anything else.

Now that the girl's family is confident, the in-laws will naturally choose carefully and will not let the girl down. They will no longer marry the girl off just to find a wife for their son.

All the young girls are willing to marry into Ningxi Village. Not only will they have a better life, but they can also make money on their own. Who wouldn’t be happy? Even if it means supporting their parents’ home, it will give them confidence, right?

The bachelors in the past are now all married and have children.

Old Master Qin always told his fellow villagers that people should not forget their roots, and that everything in their Ningxi Village was thanks to the Gu family and Li Mumu.

While the Gu family was away for more than half a year, the three members of the Tian family helped take care of the Gu family, and Tian Xueni also got married here.

In fact, Li Mumu also secretly asked Tian Xueni if ​​she was interested in her uncle?

Tian Xueni smiled. "What woman doesn't like a man like General Gu? But we are not the same kind of people. He tells me about the battlefield, but I don't understand. He tells me about poetry and lyrics, but I don't understand either. What's the point of living like this? He is tired, and so am I. I am suitable for farming, growing vegetables, raising pigs, and taking care of children. Besides, he doesn't have any such intentions anyway."

When Tian Xueni was about to get married, Li Mumu also wrote a letter to ask her uncle. Her uncle replied that he did not like Tian Xueni, but just thought she was a special girl and admired her very much, but there was no romantic feeling between them.

Li Mumu knew it. Tian Xueni was a smart person and she should be able to feel it as well.

As for the feelings belonging to my uncle, they must not be too far away.

Because it was said that as the only unmarried young general in the Gu family, he was very popular and the threshold of his house was almost broken down by matchmakers.

I heard that my uncle is close to a daughter of another military commander, but I don’t know if she can become my aunt-in-law.

Old Master Qin gave Li Mumu a big apple out of pampering. He himself couldn't bear to eat it. Fruits were still expensive, and ordinary people still couldn't bear to eat them. But he couldn't bear to eat it himself, but was willing to give it to Li Mumu.

Everyone who comes to the house will bring some delicious food for Li Mumu.

Snacks, candies, and homemade meat buns.

"Thank you, Grandpa Qin."

"You're welcome. You're a princess, so this isn't rare. But I can't afford anything better." Qin Ling said with a smile, "When are we leaving?"

Before Mr. Gu could even open his mouth, a little kid of three or four years old ran over and said, "Grandpa Village Chief, something bad has happened..."

Before he could finish his words, he tripped and fell. Just as he was about to fall to the ground, Li Mumu rushed over and picked him up.

"Thank you, Sister Twilight."

"Tangdou, be careful. If you fall, you might lose your front teeth."

Tangdou quickly covered his front teeth.

"Kid, what's wrong? Did your mother beat your father again?"

Tangdou shook his head and said nervously, "Bandits...bandits are here again!"

When Mr. Qin heard this, he quickly called out to the man carrying the sack, "What are you standing there for? Grab your weapons? Here's your chance to get a reward again."

The men responded and ran home.

Li Mumu felt something was wrong. The bandits nearby had been almost wiped out, and the fact that Ningxi Village was not easy to mess with had long been spread. Who would be so blind as to dare to come here?

"Grandpa Qin..."

"Don't worry, Mumu. You'll see how we catch those guys later."

"etc……"

"We can't wait. This is a great opportunity to earn some money. I'll go watch, and you can come over later."

Li Mumu couldn't stop Old Man Qin, but she grabbed Tang Dou who was about to go watch the fun, "Bandit? How did you know?"

"They... they ride big horses and carry knives. My father said that's what bandits were like back then."

Li Mumu frowned. Not everyone who rode a horse and carried a knife was a bandit. "What did they say?"

"Sister Mumu, run! They are coming for you."

"Aiming at me?" Li Mumu felt that something was wrong. Bandits generally did not dare to fight against government soldiers. She was a princess. Could they be so bold as to arrest her?

"What are they like? Who's the leader?"

"The leader is a man."

"Go on." Li Mumu said.

Tangdou thought for a moment and said, "She's quite pretty and looks familiar. I feel like I've seen her somewhere before."

Li Mumu took a deep breath. At this time, Mr. Qin's voice was trembling, "Mumu, come out and see if he is here."

Li Mumu strode out and exchanged glances with the man on the horse. The man curled his lips and came to her side without her noticing and knocked her on the head.

"We've been playing for so long, it's time to go back."
